Gosh, 3 putt, you can even read minds to know why others 'fanboy' someone? I would say some like Lewis because, she, too, doesn't just dish out FAKE BS, but gives thoughtful answers and is willing to give an opinion. I'm pretty sick of hearing so many golfers say "I just want to have fun out there." Yup....I need to listen to some whiny Merican who can lose with class (Beijing 2013) and jealous that an 11 yr old QUALIFIED for the 2014 USWO. "That's the Spirit"

In Gee is clearly both good and lucky. Can you picture her 2016 without an Evian win? Her awesomeness from winning 2015 USWO would totally evaporate and she'd be reduced to a beautiful Birdie Kim. Really?? Except that InGee had 3 seconds, 3 thirds, and 3 other top 10s while missing part of the season due to injury, and Birdie Kim never sniffed the top of the leaderboard before or after her USOpen. Yeah, that's frankly ridiculous. In Gee was much more accomplished than Birdie even before she joined the LPGA, let alone after what she accomplished this season, even without the Evian.

Maybe if Birdie Kim pays a visit to Sharon's Doctor's knife factory and attends Gulbis's Personality School....Birdie can become 1/2 as popular as Dumbo. I believe EVERYTHING 18majors says.....nuff said.
Luv DUMBO!!

fanofseriYou're welcome to come to my house to watch all 60 episodes of Game of Thrones. It's pretentious; but it's so very good.

I can be fairly certain that Birdie will take a pass on the plastic surgeon, given that she's already been. Unfortunately it was for reconstructive rather than cosmetic purposes: you'll recall that sometime after her win her face got smashed when the car she was riding in got into an accident.
She looked fine the last time I saw her, which was also the last time I saw Grace. It was at a USWO sectional in NJ a few years back and Birdie and I were Grace's gallery for the 27 holes she played before withdrawing and leaving Scottish amateur Sally Watson to play the last nine solo.

KLPGA plans to increase prize money to stop talent exodus from Korea to LPGA news.sina.com.tw/article/20161024/19111362.htmlKwon Chul (Kwon Soon-chul, transliteration), Tianren Zhi "Dumbo" a loyal fan club member, told Reuters when Tianren Zhi to leave Korea to the United States after the LPGA, he no longer went to see the woman Korean patrol game. "I used to travel around to see her play, the North-South thing, everywhere," Kwon Chul wearing a yellow hat fan club flag, in front of which there is a big Disney Dumbo ears. "When she was playing in the United States when I was watching her on television," he said, "I do not mind the view of Korea's game, some members of the fan club could not see, but not too much, we are loyal to Tianren Zhi."

Tianren Xhi ( Flying Elephant)( Dumbo) In Gee has all kind if names. My translator is not one hundred percent accurate but I can understand most of it. They want to keep there fan favorites there.
I remember how big the crowd were when In Gee, Sung Hyun and Jin Young was paired together. Also how much of a drop off after In Gee had to withdraw. I think that was a wake up call to try to keep, them there.

I can understand why starving peasants want out of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea but what's the deal with fat cat lady golfers from the ROK? Are they that anxious to pimp themselves for Whan or do they just want to rub shoulders with Kerr and Lewis?

Are they that anxious to pimp themselves for Whan or do they just want to rub shoulders with Kerr and Lewis? KLPGA has many drawbacks; like you're required to forfeit earnings from previous year if you don't defend your titles. I'm pretty sure there are other ugly regulations we don't know. But the main reason for In Gee and Hyo Joo to join LPGA is to rub shoulders with Kerr, Lewis, Lydia and Ariya so they have a chance to become No. 1. In an ideal world, a No. 1 ranking and a dominant LPGA player would open up endorsement opportunities outside of Korea; but it wasn't the case for Inbee Park. Whether In Gee will fare better than Inbee if reaches No. 1; we won't know until she gets there. In the big scheme of things, Mike Whan works for the players; not the other way around.

So what is the approx. $US equivalent of the combined purses of the KLPGA & JLPGA? I've always thought they should combine both tours....have 30 really good events and increase all the purses and then the KLPGA exodus might stop.
Oh ya...have Hana, Toto, ISPS, ANA, Kia, JTBC, Lotte, Honda, Yokohoma, Volvik, Ricoh early terminate their LPGA sponsorships and put their money into the KLPGA/JLPGA joint tour. These companies can sponsor other sports for global exposure.
Don't play events during the REAL/FAKE majors of the LPGA...so the elite KLPGA/JLPGA players can qualify or get invites.

My wife's Kia w/ Yokohoma tires and a trunk full of matte colored Volviks tell tells me those companies love sponsoring the LPGA for an american audience.
